RELATED: New X-MEN Teams Confirmed For Marvel's Next RebootĪs Marvel Comics fans already know, Jonathan Hickman has taken over the X-Men universe in a mission to relaunch the entire X-Men line, while apparently locking things down with a concrete definition, once and for all. ![]() The fundamental problem: Marvel's reluctance to actually define the term, leaving fans to hold debates in which they compare and contrast feats to prove their favorite mutant clearly qualifies as Omega level.

Prepare to debate a new round of X-Men powers, Marvel fans, because the comics have finally defined the term "Omega Mutants"-along with the characters who have officially earned the status.
